Miss Moneypenny

In upcoming James Bond flicks, James will no longer have a secretary and confidant named Miss Moneypenny. She’s no longer in circulation. The new one is Miss Moneynickel.

Donald Trump

• First we appoint a Russian agent to see our national secrets. Then we fire long-serving agents that have the audacity to report the truth when it conflicts with the big, beautiful mind. … We give in to Putin. We insult our allies. It’s not hard to see where this is going.

• Let’ see. The same day the GOP House passes another tax cut for the rich and more hurdles for food stamps and Medicaid, President Trump is gifted a $400 million jet from an Arab nation state that will be (for) his personal use even after the presidency. And he hosts an international crowd who paid (more than $1 million each) to have dinner with him. Isn’t it clear yet who this president cares about? Hint: It isn’t you.

License plates

Does Colorado require a front license plate on their vehicles?

Editor’s note: Yes, on most vehicles. Motorcycles are one exception.

Nix the ‘x’

Latinx Voices would gain a lot more respect if they replaced the “x” in their title. Woke DEI labels are thankfully on their way out in America.

Sense of superiority

After years of reading and making submissions to the TC Line, I have come to this conclusion: Thomas Sowell was right when he said, “It is usually futile to (try to) talk facts and analysis to people who are enjoying a sense of moral superiority in their ignorance.”

Education business

One of the businesses that the United States does really well is to sell the opportunity for higher education for advanced degrees in whatever fields — master’s, doctorate’s, postdoctoral learning. That is something … that the United States sells to the world …, which the world pays money to come to the United States to get. It’s, if you will, a “business” that the United States runs really well, and through that we get researchers who make good discoveries that enhance our ability to manufacture and to sell some of those manufactured goods outside of our country. Trump doesn’t seem to understand that that is a really good business.
